There oughta be a law against the runnin' around and leavin' me home at night
|
I tried everything that I know how to get you to treat me right
|
Why in the world did you marry me I just don't understand
|
How you expect a real good woman to stay with a no good man
|
You know I love you with all of my heart and that's the way it should be
|
But you're spreadin' good will all around town that rightfully belongs to me
|
You want me to honor our marriage vows but only other hand
|
How you expect a real good woman to stay with a no good man
|
Well everybody when you get paid I'd have to tolephone to haunt you down
|
All of bartenders know my voice and they say you're not around
|
You can take all of yours so called friends and keep 'em if you can
|
But you can't keep a real good woman by bein' a no good man
|

|
Well everybody when you get paid...
|
No you can't keep a real good woman by bein' a no good man
